Your phone buzzes when the agent needs you
The moment an agent asks a question, finishes a run or stops on a limit, you get a browser push or a Telegram message. Its menu comes along as buttons: tap 1 and it carries on. On every plan, from $19.
From $19 a month · Docker and sudo included · Cancel from the dashboard any time
How it plays out
A phone with a detachbox notification: the agent on shipyard asks to apply a migration, and the reply 1 goes straight back to its tab.
Answer, ship and sleep without the laptop
Answers without the laptop
The agent's menu arrives as buttons: 1, 2, 3, or yes and no. Your tap types the answer into the right tab, even from the lock screen.
Queue the next task while it is fresh
A ping when a run is done, so the next task goes in while you still remember the last one.
Limits that announce themselves
A tab that stops on a limit tells you. Ask for it and you also hear when the agent picks up after the reset.
Missed the ping? Email catches you
If a ping sits unseen for ten minutes, an email follows. Several of them arrive as one digest.

Questions about this
How does detachbox know the agent needs me?
The agent CLIs on the box report their state through hooks: working, waiting for you, done. Where a CLI reports nothing, the box reads the screen, and a screen that has gone quiet means the agent stopped.
Can I answer any question from the notification?
Menus with numbered choices or yes and no come as buttons. For anything longer, Open takes you straight to that tab, on the phone or the laptop.
Do I need Telegram?
Browser push and email work on their own. Link Telegram in one tap if your day already runs in Telegram.
